Sesame Seed Bagels

MM BY HELEN PEAGRAM

1 tsp Sugar
1 cup Warm water
1 tbsp Dry yeast
2 Eggs
1 tbsp Vegetable oil
3 1/2 cup All-purpose flour (approx)
2 tsp Salt

POACHING LIQUID

16 cup Water
2 tbsp Sugar

GLAZE

1/2 cup Sesame or poppy seeds
1 Egg, beaten


1. In a large bowl, dissolve 1 tsp sugar in water. Sprinkle yeast
over top. Let stand for 10 minutes til frothy. Whisk in eggs with
oil. Beat in 2 cups of the flour, sugar and salt until smooth.
Gradually stir in enough of the remaining flour to make a soft but
not sticky dough.

2. Turn onto a floured surface and knead for 8-10 minutes til smooth
and elastic and dough springs back when poked with finger. Place in a
greased bowl, turning to grease all over. Cover with plastic wrap and
tea towel. Let rise in warm place for 1 -1 1/2 hours or til doubled
in bulk.

3. Punch down; knead several times. Divide into 12 equal pieces.
Roll each into a 12 inch rope, covering pieces with towel while
working.

4. Bring ends of dough together, overlapping by about 1 inch and
stretching overlap around other end to meet underneath. Pinch firmly
to seal. NOTE: Unless ends are pinched together very firmly, they
will come apart in the water.

5. Poaching liquid. In a wide saucepan, bring water to a boil; add
sugar. Slip bagels into water, 3-4 at a time; cook over medium heat
for 1 minute. Using slotted spoon or spatula, remove bagels to well
greased or parchment lined baking sheets.

6. Glaze: Place sesame seeds in a dish. Brush bagels with egg. Dip
bagels in seeds. Return to baking sheet. Bake at 400 F for 20-25
minutes or til tops are golden and bottoms sound hollow when tapped.
Transfer to a rack to cool.

Variation:

Whole wheat Cinnamon Raisin Bagels: Substitute 1 cup whole wheat
flour for all purpose. Increase 2 Tb sugar to 1/4 cup. Stir in 2 ts
cinnamon along with eggs. After punching down dough, thoroughly knead
in 1 cup raisins. Omit sesame seeds.

Drink plenty of water. Your body needs water , it is crucial for our general good health and is blessed with calories and fat. Water is also good in that it fills the drinker's belly and helps decrease sensations of emptiness. The recommended amount medical experts argue it is best to consume at the minimum six glasses of water a day.

As an alternative to concentrating on those unhealthy foods that you ought to remove from your daily routine, concentrate on the healthy foods that you are able to bring into your daily routine. If one can inject the recommended portions nourishing pulses and vegetables into your weight loss program, you will find that you feel full and have a much reduced chance of giving in to those unwholesome mid-day nibbles.
